Faizan Abdul Hameed
@faizanabdulhameed
I’m a Finance & FP&A specialist building board-ready models and raising $2.5M+ for growth.
What I'm looking for
I mobilized $2.5M+ in venture funding for high-growth ventures and led strategic investment projects with global banks and government entities. I focus on giving GCC-based leadership teams clear financial visibility for growth, funding, or operational decisions.
My background spans FP&A, financial modeling, and capital planning across Saudi Arabia and the wider MENA region. I specialize in building clean financial models, cash-flow forecasts, and board-ready materials that help decision-makers act with confidence.
I’ve also supported investment and finance-facing work through roles including Executive Assistant to a Group CFO, and I’ve delivered measurable business impact in earlier positions (e.g., 25% higher client engagement and 30% improvement in lead generation/customer base via CRM and targeted initiatives). I’m currently open to contract/remote FP&A roles, Finance Manager/Analyst positions, and short-cycle financial modeling projects.
